Tia had been sound asleep when she heard a familiar voice in her room. It was the same voice she heard in her dream when she got her memories from home and knowledge about where she came from. Uncle Bene! Sitting up, she opened her eyes and rubbed them as she listened.

"Uncle Bene?" She called out into the darkness of her room.

"Yes, Tia! It's me. I need your help. Follow my voice"

Never one to disobey her elders, the ten-year-old got up from the bed and put on her robe, tying it then she put her slippers on. Once she was all ready to go, she spoke out into the room again. "Where am I going?"

"I'll tell you on the way. Just go towards the elevator"

"I'm going to go wake up Tony--" She started but the voice of the older gentleman cut her off.

"There's no time, Tia. You have to come now. I'm in danger"

"I'm on my way" Tia told 'him' as she left her room and then the apartment.

She did as she was told and went towards the elevator. A while later, she was on an entirely different floor and it would seem like she was talking to someone even though no one was there. She was all by herself, not even her cat was with her.

Beverly was not expecting the show of powers from Tia and very much relied on the tug the child gave her hand to get her moving. She heard her name whispered behind them, a low growl of warning because she was taking Pennywise's plaything. Fear threatened to creep up her spine--fear of the child's abilities and of the balloons--but she was determined to keep this girl safe, and her instincts told her Tia was good.

The lock on the door wouldn't keep It out, but the echoing click made Bev feel better. "They're Its balloons. They look nice enough, but he uses them to hurt people." She looked down at the girl as they rounded the landing for the third floor. "I don't want to scare you with the details." She heard her name again, but reminded herself that it wasn't real. "My apartment is on the next floor," she said. "I can take you there and we can contact your guardians, or you can stay with me for the night?" She was giving Tia a choice to keep them both focused and thinking about what was in front of them instead of behind.

"I'll never look at balloons the same way again" Tia commented as they got to the landing. She stopped to take a small breather and looked up the stairs. She wanted to see if 'he' wasn't there and that the balloons weren't following after them. She hoped her locking the door would keep them out and it looked like it was so far. Turning back to Bev, Tia shook her head. "I'm just one floor under yours. We can make it, Miss Bev. We just need to keep moving" She wanted to be back in her apartment with her brother and guardians, not somewhere she wasn't familiar with someone she'd just met.

	"I daresay you won't," she agreed with a very light laugh. Tia was a bright, brave child, who could potentially hold her own with powers like hers. Not that Beverly would allow that. "Alright. We'll keep going. We'll get you back to your apartment, and we'll make sure your guardians know what's happening." (Reply to this) (Parent)
